Even then, I'll only hit them with ranged units. I've had my explorers around 4-5 other alien units without them attacking. It's all how you play the game, I guess.

As for the game in general, I think it's light years better than Civ 5. The ability to customize your civ's evolution though tech web choices, unit perks and quest choices is such a fantastic step for the franchise, I don't think I could ever go back to the cookie cutter way to play the older Civ games.

That's the thing. There's so much here I like, or want to like. I don't mind it playing differently. I mind getting forced to sit there for 50 turns before I can do anything because if I explore at all my scouts get nuked.
